Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to left wrist inflammation, marking his third stint on the shelf this season. Corey Pieper breaks down a frantic wave of injury updates, an incredible single-game home run barrage in Cleveland, high-leverage late-inning bullpen roles, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. The transaction wire continues to move at a relentless pace across Major League Baseball. On the health front, Bobby Witt Jr. was forced to exit Monday's contest early with lingering back tightness, Miguel Andujar hits the injured list with a wrist fracture, and Max Meyer lands on the IL with a neck strain. Additionally, top catchers and outfielders are banged up as Kyle Teel manages an ankle injury, Kerry Carpenter is sidelined with a heel bruise, and Trevor McDonald was removed from his start due to an undisclosed injury. On the positive side of roster moves, Ronel Blanco has officially been activated, Ranger Suarez is set to return to the mound today, and Gleyber Torres is officially back in active lineups. On the diamond, the Cleveland offense staged an absolute power showcase by smashing seven home runs in a single game, driven by multi-homer performances from Rhys Hoskins and Petey Halpin alongside long balls from Travis Bazzana, Brayan Rocchio, and Patrick Bailey. Cal Raleigh broke his game open with a grand slam, while Yordan Alvarez, Mookie Betts, Trea Turner, Jeremy Peña, Joshua Kuroda-Grauer, Esmerlyn Valdez, Ty France, Christian Encarnacion-Strand, Caleb Durbin, Cooper Pratt, Victor Robles, and Dillon Dingler all turned in big days at the plate. Pitching highlights featured sharp outings from Bryce Elder, Nick Martinez dueling Dylan Cease, Andrew Abbott facing George Kirby, and Kyle Leahy battling Jose Soriano. Conversely, several high-profile stars cratered into the duds section, with Joe Ryan, Cristopher Sanchez, Emmett Sheehan, Freddy Peralta, Jacob Misiorowski, and Jacob deGrom all taking heavy damage on the hill, while Brandon Lowe, Kyle Schwarber, Braxton Ashcraft, Ryan Weathers, and Ivan Herrera posted quiet, empty nights.

Amid a brutal four-game skid and a bullpen implosion, chatter has emerged that the Guardians should become sellers before the trade deadline, but Ken and Anthony flatly reject it. They argue there is nobody worth moving since the roster is stocked with cheap, young core pieces like Travis Bazzana, Cooper Ingle, and Angel Martinez who are central to the franchise's future, not trade chips. Anthony points out some of the frustration stems from Cavs fatigue bleeding into how fans view the Guardians, while Ken argues the team still deserves the benefit of the doubt given a weak AL Central and the absence of Jose Ramirez. Rather than a splashy sell off, they suggest smaller moves like adding a reliever or converting a Triple A arm into bullpen depth.

His name?2.Elmer Rodriguez gets a spot start against the Tigers tomorrow with Cole's start being pushed back. Are you going to start him if you have him? I'm assuming you will not be picking up?3.Jackson Holliday leaves Saturday's game with a groin. I'm assuming you need to grab someone in case he hits the IL.a.Were we wrong on Holliday this season or has the hamate injury be at the root of his problem? .200/.286/.388 slash line with 4 home runs and 3 SB.4.Got a note from a Patreon member who was surprised at the power that Travis Bazzana is showing. I always thought he was a 15 home run guy and I'm sticking with that – 89.1 mph EV and 12 degrees of leverage is supportive of that – maybe he can grow into a bit more. Good speed and can really hit. I think he's a very good player – high floor. 15-20 type of player with a .280+ BA and .350 OBP. BTW, the defensive metrics do not look very good with him. a.What say you?5. Manny Machado – 13 HR, 1 SB, .178 BA or Tatis Jr. – 2 HR, 18 SB, .282 BA. Who would you rather have for the ROS.6.Jordan Lawlar – I just don't know what to say. It's just not happening.

A wild weekend of fantasy baseball action delivered jaw-dropping power displays and unexpected pitching disasters, leaving managers to navigate an increasingly volatile landscape. Corey Pieper breaks down a massive slate of weekend results, major injury updates, catastrophic pitching lines, and the latest FanDuel Bet of the Day. The long ball took center stage on Saturday and Sunday. Kyle Schwarber put on a masterclass with a historic three-home run performance on Saturday, while Ozzie Albies, Jeremy Peña, Ty France, top draft picks Travis Bazzana and JJ Wetherholt, and collegiate phenom Jac Caglianone all left the yard twice over the weekend. Bryce Harper electrified fantasy managers by hitting for the cycle on Saturday, William Contreras put together a massive 4-for-5 day with a home run and 3 RBIs, and Wyatt Langford continued his hot streak, launching another long ball while handling leadoff duties on Sunday. On the mound, Joey Cantillo was nearly untouchable, carrying a gem through eight innings with nine strikeouts and just one earned run, while young arms like Cam Schlittler racked up an incredible 13 strikeouts, and Troy Melton fired six innings of one-hit ball. Veteran Logan Webb went the distance with an eight-inning complete game, and Nathan Eovaldi bounced back from a skipped start to log nine strikeouts over six strong frames. It wasn't all celebration, however, as several frontline aces ran into absolute buzzsaws. Freddy Peralta endured a catastrophic nightmare, knocked out after coughing up 10 earned runs on 10 hits in just 2.2 innings. Bryce Elder was tagged for eight earned runs on 12 hits, while Kevin Gausman got rocked for seven earned runs while walking four in just two innings. Stephen Kolek gave up nine earned runs in less than two frames, and Dustin May surrendered six earned runs in a brief two-inning appearance. Even steady stars hit speed bumps, as Jacob deGrom was tagged for six earned runs over six frames, and Tarik Skubal surrendered two home runs in a shaky 5.2-inning performance. The injury landscape remains highly active and critical for upcoming roster decisions. On the bright side, ace Brandon Woodruff and Shane Bieber are both set to make highly anticipated returns to the mound on Monday, Eury Perez is expected back next week, and Daulton Varsho made an immediate impact upon his return with a three-run blast. However, the Baltimore Orioles suffer a massive blow as star catcher Adley Rutschman lands on the 7-day concussion injured list after a freak collision, while MVP candidate Bobby Witt Jr. is dealing with a Grade 1 MCL sprain. Elly De La Cruz is targeting a Tuesday return, and Teoscar Hernandez is eyeing a June 29th comeback, but Ryne Nelson (flexor), Michael Soroka (glute), Jordan Lawlar (hamstring), and Jack Leiter (ankle) all face structural setbacks.
